Nollywood actor Zuby Michael has sparked widespread reactions after advising Christians to leave Jos following a deadly attack in the Angwan Rukuba area.
The comment, shared on Instagram, came amid outrage over the killing of dozens of residents, drawing attention to ongoing security concerns in the region.
While the actor appeared to issue a warning, many Nigerians strongly disagreed, arguing that leaving ancestral homes is neither realistic nor a solution to the crisis.
Several social media users insisted that affected communities should instead demand stronger action from the government and improved security measures, rather than relocation.
Others stressed the need to move beyond religious and ethnic divisions, calling for unity and better leadership to address the root causes of violence.
The reactions reflect growing frustration among citizens over recurring attacks and perceived gaps in security response across parts of the country.
Despite the backlash, some supporters defended the actor, describing his statement as an emotional response to the tragic loss of lives.
The debate continues to trend online, highlighting deeper national conversations around insecurity, governance, and community resilience.
